Fallen - by Tom E. Sniegoski.

I read this fantastic book called Fallen by Thomas E. Sniegoski.

-> exert -> On his eighteenth birthday, Aaron begins to hear strange voices and is convinced he is going insane. But having moved from foster home to foster home, Aaron doesn't know whom he can trust. He wants to confide in the cute girl from class, but fears she'll confirm he's crazy.

Then a mysterious man begins following Aaron. He knows about Aaron's troubled past and his new powers. And he has a message for Aaron: As the son of a mortal and an angel, Aaron has been chosen to redeem the Fallen.

Aaron tries to dismiss the news and resists his supernatural abilities. But he must accept his newfound heritage -- and quickly. For the dark powers are gaining strength, and are hell-bent on destroying him.... [close]

I was a little hesitant at first because the last book I read called fallen; I did not enjoy however, this one was great and I really enjoyed the MC; as a young male it's different than what I usually read and young men tend to have a sarcastic nature about them and its fun to read. I cannot wait for the next installment.

And thats all I have to say about that. :)

Cheers.

HUSH HUSH

WOW, I have got to say that this book by Becca Fitzpatrick far exceeded my expectations. I have been spreading the word to everyone to get their hands on a copy.
It was a fabulous book and I would read it again if i wanted too. It only took me 6 hours, yes i said that , 6 hours. I fell in love after the first chapter. It is a book I would recommend anyone read. It was Becca first novel as well and kudos to her for writing such a fantastic novel.

Hush Hush by Becca Fitzpatrick. (you can find her on twitter, facebook and goodreads.)

Most recent writing news.

Hey there,

lately I have been posting my opinions on the books I have been reading. I love reading as you are well aware I'm sure. I like to give some insight on the stuff I have read, in case someone is looking to know how a book was. However, this note is about my own writing. I have to say I have, 4 unfinished stories on my desk that I have yet to figure out an end to. I have a little bit of writers block. Mostly frustrated with the lack of response my first 'completed' manuscript recieved. so I am tweaking it again. then sending it out . Anywho. that was all I had to say. :)

Cheers

Latest read

Okay, so the most recent book I read after the Shack, was a book called Fallen by Lauren Kate.

Well what to say... Took me about five days to complete this book, it was about 400 and some odd pages. I was about three quarters of the way through before any real action started to happen. To me, it felt as though the book dragged on. then to pick up several puncuation errors and one spelling error through me off. I remembered when I was asking for people to read my novel and tell me what was wrong with it only to have them rip it to shred because of 'puncuation' and 'grammar' was really frustrating to see that this went into print with errors in it. I thought the editor is supposed to pick up on this sort of thing. However, the book was not terrible but I do not think I will pick up the sequel which is disappointing.

If you like angels and a slow romance then its all right but if your are expecting to love the characters and get into the story they I wouldn't bother. everything felt so detached and cold.

I am on a new book called Beautiful Creatures by Kami Garcia & Margaret Stohl and so far I am hooked, it is different than what I usually read, the MC is 16 yr old male and the girl is mysterious. Not entirely sure what it is about yet other than a curse, she isn't a vampire I figured that out possibly some sort of witch craft or voodoo but it makes me laugh and I really like the MC so far so and I am only three chapters in.

Been awhile

YES, IT HAS been awhile since I was on. Sorry been super busy with work. However I was able to squeeze in some reading time and finished two books. Thought I would comment on them.

The first is the Shack by WM. Paul Young




It was the most interesting book that I have had the pleasure of reading. I would definitely recommend reading it. As usual the reviews on this book were good an bad. However with the bad, I really think, the critics didnt understand the big picture behind it. You dont have to be a christian to read it because it does not preach about God. However there is a very important role that God plays during the main part of the book. Thing is, Mack the MC, goes through something that many people all over the world have gone through. The loss of his youngest daughter. Everyone has doubts and blames God. The book is about Mack awakening and reinstated faith and forgiveness for the evil that is in this world. I found it enlightening and profound. I am not a religious person.

On the lighter side of things, or darker, (lmao) I read Tempted by P.C Cast, house of night series-> about Vampyres.





At first it took me a bit to get into it, but after half way through and some serious power reading it became really interesting and lured me in for more. The next book is due to come out this month and I am excited to get my hands on it. If you have not read any of the house of night series and you like the supernatural then check this out. it is a teen based novel but it is still great. It is about a girl named Zoey who in the very beginning was marked. Hence the first book of hte series. Once you are marked your life changes and you become a vampyre. Zoey's life is turned upside down and she is forced to accept a life she never wanted. Never the less Zoey has her ups and downs, good and bad days. She makes new friends and some very interesting boyfriends. Tempted is the 6th installment in the series with the 7th on shelves april 27th 2010.

I am currently, on to a new series today. only 5 pages in. Called FALLEN by Lauren KAte. will post my reviews once I am done.
